Gotta root for the guy. Love his enthusiam.

I think KState is under-rated. Snyder in year 2, they could end up a top 20 team. We have trouble stopping the run. Bo's teams always look ready to play in night games. Im worried, but Im worried about almost every conference game.

Dang - didn't even think about that fact. That is true that with all of the medical facilities around the stadium being open on Friday it would probably preclude them from being able to do the game that day. I wonder if we could do it on Fridays in Lincoln but Saturdays in Iowa City to at least get it on Friday half the time. Whats the deal Caven? We arent talking about the ER right. Shut it down. Id be disappointed if this game couldnt be played on Friday. It is Nebraska's tradition and would give the rivalry a national spotlight. On a side note, Iowa fans have good reason to be chirpy. I just am in a transition from having Iowa as my Big 10 team for the last 15 years.

I love Brion Carnes. In his film he showed the ability to run the zone read and looked really comfortable throwing on the run. How it all plays out is a question for next year.

Was visiting with my brother-in-law who is a cyclone fan living in Des Moines, poor bastard. Rumor is that Iowa wont move the game to Friday because university medical clinics need to be open and wont be available for parking. Its just stories now, but it will really piss me off if Iowa cant carry on own tradition of playing Friday after Thanksgiving. Living in Iowa, Hawk fans are chirpy and starting to be irritating. I may have to root Clones on Saturday.

1. T Mart's deep ball 2. Pressure from the front 4, Idaho is going to throw the ball a lot. 3. Someone stepping up at saftey and nickel in the dime package which I think we will see a lot of. 4. 10 carries for Helu and Berkhead each, minimum. 5. LaVonte David. The guy could be special when he learns his assignments and should be the dime LB.

If Martinez goes through the year as a freshman starter, which is a big if at this point, and looks to be a solid starter going into 2011. I wouldnt blame Cody Green for transfering.

T Mart showed a lot yesterday. He has speed, he can look off a DB, he could be more accurate, and I didnt see him throw deep. A good start for the young man. I hope he is too cocky, all good QBs are. Hes not even close to Eric Crouch comparisons, even though that was the last guy playing QB at NU with that much athleticsm.

On the note of coachs playing the best QB because their jobs are on the line. How much does yesterday's depth chart of 1 Mart 2 Green have to do with the direction Bo wants to take the offense? He has mentioned needing the depth when the QB is a running threat. Add the recruiting of speed backs Heard and Green. Rich Rod spread. How do you like that?

This QB race seems far from over to me. TMart is gonna be loved by everyone at this time, a rs-freshman starting at QB. I am very excited about what he showed VS WKU, he has some skills that Zac and Cody dont. Lets see what happens when NU is down and hes thrown 2 ints before the half. What happens when he struggles, it will be nice to have Zac Lee on the bench.

Thanks for putting this info together. It seems like NU needs a lot of guys on this list to step up this year to have a successfull season.

Florida love child.

The only thing entertaining about these segments are counting how many times Lou Holtz accidentially spits on Mark May.

Wouldnt a WHITE OUT be a great idea?

As far as 7 home games, our schedule only has 11 games. Look for a SDSU paycheck. I hate Notre Dame.

I hate it when Fro makes good points. Only probation could slow down OU and UT, so the Big 12 will remain a strong conference. Tech, OSU, and MU have some short term problems, but should recover. A 1 loss team playing NU's 2011 and 2012 schedule over a undefeated big 12 team, it would be close. Sorry for all the Big 10 love here on HB Fro.

Agree, Iowa seems to share CU's inferiority complex. I do live in Iowa, and for the most part get along with Iowa fans. I dont see them as rude as CU. I was hoping to have Penn St as the last game, oh well.

Thanks for the link Irie. Gotta be an interesting time now in UH.

The media always seem to want more. I really dont understand just what they want. I think Bo gives them a lot and he gives them real feelings and emotion that few coaches let the media see. After the VA Tech game last year when he was proud of his team in a loss he gave the media time and a great quote "I dont think you ever get over a loss like this". After a game when he is upset about his teams effort he will shut things down, then later in a season he will gush about a player, Ganz and Suh. This seems much more fun for the media to cover than any other NU coach I can think of. Osborne had to be a complete bore for the media to cover week in week out. You would get the exact same thing each week.

Not a fan of the all whites, Id like to see all red on 10/16. Blood red.

I thought hed be on the roster, after Heard didnt qualify. We do have a few scholarships to give out right. I guess I dont understand the reasoning.

Id like to see the coaches get someone who could be primarily a slot. I cant remember the last guy who was a small, quick athletic slot. Seemed like we could pull in Curtis last year, and I thought Antonio Bell could be that player. We know how that worked out.

The reason the starting QB hasnt been announced. Bo wont let a player speak to the media until the player has played a game. Just throwin it out there.

As a Nebraska fan living in Iowa, I dont get why Iowa fans put so much emphasis on being better than NU. Iowa fans can also be rather illogical about why NU and Iowa dont play on a yearly basis, which is obivious. I tell them it just dont matter who is better. Iowa needs to win their conference and NU needs to win their conference. I worry this rivalry will turn into NU ISU, where one side values the rivalry much more than the other.

I admire the commitment made by the DE, but his mustache has a long ways to go to reach the status of Tom Selleck's legendary mustache.
